Following the party’s agreement for consensus candidates for the national chairmanship of the All Progressives Congress, APC, as well as unity list for all other positions, six chairmanship aspirants have withdrawn their contest against Saturday’s national convention of the party.
Sen. George Akume who signed the letter dated March 25 2022 on behalf of other aspirants, said their decision followed President Muhammadu Buhari’s preference for Sen. Abdullahi Adamu.
“May I kindly refer to the appeal by Mr. President for the Chairmanship aspirants of our great party to agree to a consensus arrangement wherein our colleague, H.E. Sen. Abdullahi Adamu is made our consensus candidate for the chairmanship position and forward letters of withdrawal from the under listed aspirants to wit:
“Sen. Tanko Al-Makura, Sen. George Akume, Abdulaziz Yari, Sen. Sani Musa Muhammed, Etsu Muhammed and Salihu Mustapha,” the letter reads.
